Expression and application of aflatoxin degrading enzyme gene in Pichia pastoris

In this study, three aflatoxin degrading enzyme genes, tv-adtz, arm-adtz and cu-adtz, were heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris. The protein expression of the enzyme solution was detected by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the results showed that specific protein bands were detected and the target genes were successfully integrated into Pichia pastoris. The enzyme activities and detoxification efficiency of TV-ADTZ, Arm-ADTZ and Cu-ADTZ crude enzyme solutions were detected, and the highest enzyme activities were up to 3.57, 4.30, and 2.41 U mL
